No, the new flowcard should be there once you install 1.3.0.

Oh my bad… didn’t read it correctly. Just assumed Whatsapp would be part of this. Sorry!

Snapshots of the cameras with Signal works fine!

Cam pic to Signal works! Great addition, Robin!

Pushing images is possible like Martijn said, on Android too you can only look at the pic, not zoom, edit or save it.  
I used ‘send pic to e-mail’ for that, but with Signal it’s just quicker and very convenient

That’s why sending to groups would be handy, just like it is possible in the Telegram bot but I understood that this is impossible in Whatsapp. Bummer…

Very useful app for me, thanks! I noticed that the messages sent exactly the same time, arrive at Signal much faster than at Whatsapp.

Same overhere. Signal text and a picture arrive within seconds. Whapp and Telegram takes more than 15s. But, I don’t mind. Must be the API (and load of the servers and network at their end?)

Yes, it is the load on the whatsapp server. The servers on callmebot are funded by donations and advertisements. But as long as you dont use this app for life or business critical applications it shouldn’t have a big impact if the message arrives 15 seconds later 😉

I asked the developer for some new features by the way. Image sending with Telegram should be coming available in the near future. I also hope the same is possible for whatsapp image sending. But as mentioned his whatsapp server is already pretty loaded, so adding image sending will be a problem then.

I’ll keep everyone posted here if new features arrive.

The whatsapp server for instance is already fully loaded, and renting more power has a cost. So I decided that 50% of any donations I receive for the Homey app will be forwarded to the developer of [callmebot.com](http://callmebot.com). If you donate please place a remark that it is for the callmebot app.

IMPORTANT EDIT: The developer of [callmebot.com](http://callmebot.com) has let me know that he thinks I deserve 100% of donations for the Homey app. So be aware that I will not share incoming donations with him.

True, but would have been nice if it was hassle free for others. Like to send a message the neighbours when alarm or camera is triggered during our holyday. But non the less great app!!!

Sending to groups is a feature I requested to be added by the service. But there is a major risk it can be abused for spam. So it is very uncertain if this feature will ever arrive (besides for Telegram, that is something I can add to the Homey app when I have some spare time)

Hi Frank, it is not difficult to achieve imho.  
Let the neighbours register their phone, ask for the returned api key if needed, and create a device for them. Now your Homey can send alerts to them
